4.4 Water
4.4.1 Potable water
4.4.1.1 Subject to the provisions of 4.4.2, every factory shall have an adequate supply of clean potable water that is free from suspended matter and substances that could be deleterious to the product or harmful to health. The quality of portable water must be within the meaning of EU directive 80/778/EEC and Zimbabwe Standards No. 560:1997 (Water for Domestic supplies). Bacteriological tests should be carried out at least once a week. Chlorine tests should be carried out daily. In addition the water shall have been so treated, by flocculation, filtration, chlorination or other acceptable process, as to ensure compliance with the following requirements:
(a) Total aerobic counts: the total count of aerobic organisms shall not exceed 100 per ml (at 22 °C for 5 days) or per 10ml (at 37°C for 48 hours).
Method. A stock of nutrient or plate count agar should be prepared in universal bottles (20ml/bot) and stored under refrigeraition. One bottle of agar per petri dish is used. The agar is melted when required by heating in boiling sterilizer. When liquid the agar is cooled so that it can be held comfortably by hand. The agar is poured into a sterile dish and 1.0ml of water is added. The sample is mixed by rotating the dish slowly on the bench 5 times clockwise, 5 times anticlockwise, 5 times up and down, 5 times anticlockwise and 5 times sideways. The sample is then incubated . Note- duplicate plates should be prepared: 2 at 22°C and 2 at 37°C.
(b) Total coliform organisms: the count of coliform organisms shall not exceed one organism per 100 ml of the water (at 37°C for 48 hours)(see 11.16.1.1 or 11.16.2.3.1); and
(c) faecal coliform bacteria: faecal coliform bacteria shall not be detectable in 100 ml of the water (see 11.16.1.2 or 11.16.2.3.2 for methods).
4.4.1.2 For the purposes of the water examination, the coliform group shall include all Gram-negative, non-spore-forming rods capable of fermenting lactose with the production of acid and gas at 37 °C in less than 48 h. Faecal coliform bacteria shall be regarded as gram-negative, non-spore-forming rods capable of fermenting lactose with the production of acid and gas at both 37 °C and 44 °C in less than 48 h, and of producing indole in tryptone water.
4.4.1.3 Chlorinated water that could have any deleterious effect on the product shall be dechlorinated immediately before use. In all cases, the free residual chlorine concentration shall be determined by the N,Ndiethyl-I ,4-Q-phenylene diamine test or other acceptable test that has equivalent sensitivity(eg DPD 1 tablets and disc 3/40 D). Standard =<0.5 mg/l.
4.4.1.4 Additional tests on potable water
(a) Acidity (pH). Standard = 6.5-8.5
(b) Faecal streps. This test should not be done as a routine. Its value lies in interpreting doubtful coliform tests. The presence of faecal streps in an accompanying water test will constitute presumptive evidence that doubtful water has faecal coli.
Method
(a) take 1.0ml McConkey broth culture which has shown acid and gas. .
(b) Add to 9.0ml sterile water , mix and pasterurise (submerse tube in water bath and heat to 60°C for 15 minutes).
(c) Transfer one drop to McConkey agar spread with sterile glass rod. Incubate @37°C for 24 hours. Positive result is indicated by pin-point magenta (red) colonies (do duplicate).
(c ) Suplhite reducing clostridia
(d ) E. coli at 44°C/ 24 hours (every two weeks).
(e ) Chemical analysis (turbidity, metals etc.)
(f) Organochlorines (chlorinated hydrocarbons) (every three months).
